I’ve been on this wierd pie making kick lately. Probably has something to do with the weather. If I can’t golf . . .
So I’ve made sweet potato pie, brown sugar pie, chocolate pie and my new favorite recipe: Kentucky Pie.
This is a family recipe that my mom passed on. It’s been one of our favorites and good to now have in the next generation.
Kentucky Pie
1 stick butter
2 cups sugar
1 Tbspn cornstarch
3 eggs
1 cup evaporated milk
1 tspn vanilla extract
Melt butter over medium heat, stir in sugar and cornstarch. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each one. Add milk and vanilla, stir well. Pour into 9″ pie crust. Bake at 350 for 50-60 minutes. Refrigerate for one hour before serving.
Enjoy!

I HOPE YOU DON’T EAT TOO MUCH OF THAT PIE. IT HAS ABOUT 775 CALORIES PER SLICE. (ASSUMES 6 SERVINGS)
Hey Lindy,
How many chocolate chips and when do you add them?

I think a true Kentucky Derby Pie has chocolate chips AND pecans.
Well, it’s really not kentucky derby pie….but with a few changes it would be:
1/2 c butter melted and cooled
1 c sugar
1/2 c flour
1 c choc chips
1 1/2 c pecans
1 T bourbon
bake at 350 for 30 min
cool before serving
pecans and bourbon optional
if you don’t add the bourbon
then add a t of vanilla.
and….of course it has alot of calories…..anything that tastes good does! darn…

ummmm…..don’t forget the pie shell on that Kentucky derby pie!

Greg,
Where did you get your brown sugar pie recipe. Most people I know have never heard of it. I have a recipe for it and people always ask me about the recipe. I thought it was just a southern thing.
Bake
My mom grew up in Kentucky. The recipe has been in the family for generations.
